USE OF INFORMATION
Zaawia does NOT trade, rent or sell your personal information or data to any other organization or third party, except as provided, specifically in this Policy.
Zaawia has structured its websites so that individuals may visit us on the Web without revealing personally identifiable information. Zaawia uses information it collects to provide and collect payment for its web hosting solutions and other services. Passively collected information, such as information collected from or about your device including through the placement or reading of cookies or other tracking technologies is used to provide a customized experience as you use Zaawia’ s services.
- A) Customer Contact and Account Information
The information collected from customers is used to manage each customer’s account (e.g., billing and account management) and to promote other products or services that Zaawia believe may be of interest to its customers. Zaawia may also generate non-identifying and aggregate profiles from information that customers provide during registration. Zaawia may use this aggregated and non-identifying information to promote advertisements that appear on Zaawia’ website and in connection with its services. All such aggregated and non-identifying information that Zaawia collects, as well as any analysis of such information that Zaawia produces, is proprietary information of Zaawia.
- B) Analytics and Statistics
Zaawia uses information gathered from its website analytics (e.g., user IP addresses) to help diagnose problems with Zaawia’ servers, and to administer and optimize Zaawia’ website. Zaawia also collects broad demographic information from this data to help improve its website and services. Any statistics gathered by Zaawia are proprietary property of Zaawia.
- C) Support and Email Inquiries
When customers send email inquiries and/or support requests to Zaawia, the return email address (and other personal information provided in the inquiry/request) is used to answer the email inquiry/request received.
- D) Customer Surveys
Zaawia may use the contact information provided in customer surveys to follow up on survey answers. Zaawia may also contact you to highlight the changes Zaawia makes in response to your feedback.
- E) Confidentiality
Apart from trusted business partners who work with or on behalf of Zaawia, and are subject to specific confidentiality agreements, Zaawia will not provide or sell to any third party your personal information and will keep all customer information confidential, subject to the following:
- Zaawia does not share personally identifiable information about individual users with advertisers. Zaawia may display online advertisements and share aggregated and non-identifying information about customers collected through the registration process or through online surveys and promotions with certain advertisers. This aggregated and non-identifying information may be used to deliver tailored advertisements.
- Zaawia may share aggregated, non-personally identifying information obtained from customer surveys with third parties.
- Zaawia may access, preserve, and share customer information with companies, organizations, governmental entities, or individuals outside of Zaawia if we believe, in good faith and in our sole discretion, that the law requires us to do so. This may include, but is not limited to, responding to subpoenas, court orders or other legal processes. Zaawia may access, preserve, and share customer information as necessary to: establish or exercise Zaawia’ legal rights or defend against any claim including threatened claims; investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected fraud or other illegal activities; prevent death or serious physical harm to any person; or investigate violations of Zaawia’ Terms of Service.
- In certain jurisdictions or pursuant to the rules of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”) or certain registries, domain name registration information has to be made available and accessible to the public through a “WHOIS” search. The WHOIS is a publicly accessible database that lists the domain name registration information for a particular domain name, the name server(s) to which the domain name points, and the domain name’s creation and expiration date. Zaawia may deposit your domain registration information with a third-party escrow provider to comply with ICANN requirements. At times, customers may receive solicitations that result from searches of the publicly available databases by other companies or individuals. Any such solicitations or SPAM do not come from Zaawia and Zaawia does not control the use of WHOIS information by third parties.
DATA SECURITY
Zaawia uses multiple security measures to prevent the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. Your data is protected using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology, the industry standard. This encrypts order data and is designed to aid in ensuring the accuracy and security of that customer information. In the unlikely event of a data breach, Zaawia will notify the appropriate regulatory and/or legal authorities, as well as affected customers/individuals, within seventy-two (72) hours.
